Two detained after traffic stop in Red Bluff

A large batch of California Highway Patrol officers helped detain two people tonight on the South Main Street off-ramp in Red Bluff.

Up to eight units were on the ramp from Interstate 5 at around 8:30 p.m., authorities said. They said extra units were called in to help because one of several occupants had a felony arrest warrant and an alert to officers for their safety.

They temporarily shut down the ramp, and several police units had waited in the area because of the stop.
